HORNSWAGGLED!!!
How the Me of Now was Tricked by the Me of Yesterday into Going to War
by President George W. Bush

Excerpt from Chapter 3:

A MEETING I WAS AT

One meeting I remember from that time was particularly indicational of the nurture of my administration.

It was in early October, just barely a month after that great, uh, conflagration, uh, destruction, of the two towers. The meeting was held at the pool room of my ranch house in Texas. In the meeting were Colyn “The C Man” Powell, Condolisa “The Condor” Rice, and Dick “Big Dick” Cheney, and of course, “Stinker”, (that’s me), well, the me of a year and a half ago, The Me of the Past, and we were to have a brief briefing uh, on terroristic insurgencies, uh, activities.

The Me of the Past started the meeting abruptly, seemingly coming out of nowhere with the question; “What about Iraq?” Condo responded, “What about Iraq, Mr. President? We briefed you on that, there are no substantial ties—“

I cut her off, whipping out a new nickname, “Quit your jawin’, Jawbone!” (Because she has a prominent jaw). “What do you have to say, Chain Gang?”

Dick Cheney took a moment to realize he had been re-christened with one of my patented “nick-ers”.

“I’m behind you, sir, I mean…Iraq is a loose cannon, always has been, what they don’t tell us, what we don’t know about them, is so much more than what we do. Hussein is a terror to his people, and the world. Everything we know tells us he’s not coming clean, so he must have something to hide, that’s what you’re thinking, I’m sure, and I stand behind you.”

It hadn’t been what I was thinking, but it felt real nice to have someone so crafty, bald, and rich, buttering my butt so sweetly, and The Me of the Past just nodded. Then, even though that was all The Me of the Past needed, I checked in with “Pow-pow” (because guess who had a new nickname for him?…in fact, 2 new nick-ers!! –read on!)...
